Neural Cell Adhesion Molecule L1 Antibody, clone L1CAM/13053R, is a recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibody that recognizes L1CAM, a transmembrane glycoprotein with important roles in neuronal adhesion, migration and nervous system development. Encoded by the L1CAM gene, the protein is also commonly known as L1 Cell Adhesion Molecule, NCAM-L1 and CD171. L1CAM belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily of cell adhesion molecules and mediates interactions between cells as well as interactions with components of the extracellular environment.
During nervous system development, L1CAM contributes to neuronal migration, neurite outgrowth, axon guidance and axon fasciculation. The protein can mediate homophilic adhesion through interactions between L1CAM molecules on neighboring cells and can also participate in heterophilic interactions with other cell-surface and extracellular proteins. These interactions help coordinate neuronal movement and the establishment of organized neural connections during development.
Neural Cell Adhesion Molecule L1 also participates in intracellular signaling through its cytoplasmic domain and its association with cytoskeletal and signaling proteins. These mechanisms connect extracellular adhesion events with changes in cell morphology and motility. The importance of L1CAM in neural development is further demonstrated by pathogenic variants in the L1CAM gene, which cause the spectrum of X-linked neurological disorders collectively known as L1 syndrome.
Beyond neuroscience, L1CAM is an important research target in cancer biology. Altered expression has been reported in multiple tumor types and has been associated with changes in tumor cell adhesion, migration and invasive behavior. L1CAM expression is therefore investigated in studies examining how cell adhesion and motility contribute to tumor progression and disease biology.
A Neural Cell Adhesion Molecule L1 Antibody can be used to investigate L1CAM expression and its involvement in neuronal development, axon biology, cell adhesion, migration and cancer research.
Also known as CD171, NCAM-L1 and Neural Cell Adhesion Molecule L1, L1CAM is a cell adhesion protein involved in neuronal migration, axon development and nervous system function; additional target information is available on our L1CAM Antibody page.
Optimal dilution of the Neural Cell Adhesion Molecule L1 Antibody should be determined by the researcher.
A portion of amino acids 600-900 from human L1CAM protein was used as the immunogen for the Neural Cell Adhesion Molecule L1 Antibody.
Aliquot the Neural Cell Adhesion Molecule L1 Antibody and store frozen at -20oC or colder. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
